For me, the real question is: 

Why did Lucius wait until the beginning of the school year to get the
diary to Hogwarts?  According to Dobby: "There is a plot, Harry
Potter.  A plot to make most terrible things happen at
Hogwarts...Dobby has known it for months, sir."  If Dobby's known it
for months, why has Lucius waited so long to put it in play?  

And it's interesting that he didn't just give the diary to Snape and
get him to plant it someplace where a kid could "accidently" find it.
